Continuation from last Tuesday

 More from the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

My friend and I would ride our bikes everywhere.  Probably farther away than my parents knew.


 Or this?
How many of you broke an arm doing this?  I didn't but my older sister did.


These were no longer in use when I started teaching 4th grade in the 90s.


Loved this game.  

More to come next week.

Sunday Drive Home

 We had snow on Friday and usually the wind or rising temperatures makes the snow disappear from the trees.  This time this has not been the case.  All the snow we have is like frosting on the trees and bushes.

I took this set of photos on our ride back from church on Sunday after lunching at Panera.









Tom, I did capture a barn!

Below almost home.  Our road gets sanded, never salted.

One Year ago

 







Can you believe I'm missing snow?  Only white on the ground is from the biggest piles from our snows in December.  Grass is green.

But look at this forecast.


There's hope.
